Brooke Monk's trend clip starts an eye-color conversation
Viewers are comparing brown eyes and picking up on an opening side-eye as the Short makes a fast start.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 358,513 views a day, 5.8 times a normal first day on this channel (62,308).
This trend 😭
Brooke Monk's latest trend clip has reached nearly 198,000 views in nine hours, already more than triple the audience her Shorts usually draw in a full first day.
The title, "This trend 😭", leaves the explanation to the clip. In the replies, eye color becomes the recurring subject: viewers mention having the same shade, talk about how common brown eyes are, and describe the patterns in their own irises. One commenter singles out Brooke's opening side-eye as a response to internet trends themselves.
It isn't her only fast-starting upload today. The separately posted "October 12, 2026" has also drawn substantially more views than a typical Short's full-day audience.
Among the eye-color comparisons, one viewer makes a different request: a return to Brooke's ASMR series. Even under a trend clip, an older part of her repertoire gets a mention.

What viewers say
Honestly, the side-eye at the beginning of the video says it all about these random internet trends.
